(A) Practicing polygamists.-Any immigrant who is coming to the United States to practice polygamy is inadmissible A freind of mine came across a gentleman, who is here on work visa and he is facing a unique problem. He is married to two persons and wants to bring his whole family here in the USA. He was looking for answer if he can get both his spouses and kids here on H4 visas. Currently both of them and his kids are in India. Interesting hmmm :D

Interim guidance for processing I-140 employment-based immigrant petitions and I-485 and H-1B petitions affected by the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act of 2000 (AC21) (Public Law 106-313)

I. Q & A ON PROCESSING OF I-140 PETITIONS AND I-485 APPLICATIONS UNDER THE I-140 PORTABILITY PROVISIONS OF ?106(C) OF AC21

Question 1. How should service centers or district offices process unapproved I-140 petitions that were concurrently filed with I-485 applications that have been pending 180 days in relation to the I-140 portability provisions under ?106(c) of AC21?

Answer: If it is discovered that a beneficiary has ported off of an unapproved I-140 and I-485 that has been pending for 180 days or more, the following procedures should be applied: A. Review the pending I-140 petition to determine if the preponderance of the evidence establishes that the case is approvable or would have been approvable had it been adjudicated within 180 days. If the petition is approvable but for an ability to pay issue or any other issue relating to a time after the filing of the petition, approve the petition on it?s merits. Then adjudicate the adjustment of status application to determine if the new position is the same or similar occupational classification for I-140 portability purposes. B. If a request for additional evidence (RFE) is necessary to resolve a material issue, other than post-filing issues such as ability to pay, an RFE can be issued to try to resolve the issue. When a response is received, and if the petition is approvable, follow the procedures in part A above

Even as it stands RIGHT NOW without the "New AC21 Rules", you cannot use AC21 unless your I-140 is approved. The basic principle of AC21 is "If your I-140 is APPROVED AND your I-485 application has been pending for more than 180 days" you can switch jobs and not lose anything.

was it EB2 or EB3?

My EB2 was rejected initially but later approved due to Sheila's evalaution of my CA degree equivalent to master's degree. I did not know her but my lawyer insisted to get it done through her. She was good for me.

I saw the following document on German Consulate - New Delhi. http://www.new-delhi.diplo.de/contentblob/1827030/Daten/857105/DD_Airport_Transit_A.pdf

It says: - a valid residence permit or visa for the USA, Japan, and Canada - An Airport Transit Visa is not required for holders of valid visa issued by Bulgaria, Romania, Cyprus, Ireland, United Kingdom, Canada, Japan or the USA irrespective of the travel destination.

I have a Canadian Visitor Visa. Do you think I will need Airport Transit Visa or I am reading it wrong?

To go one step further on your point, the whole world should have a better understanding and expectation of employment-based immigration to America. When the fact is out, it is really up to the indivdual to make an informed decision without complainting.

here is the reality:

you came here thinking they will love you because of your math skills.

what actually happened: they took all the credit, and 10-15 years of your career without letting you progress.

we got screwed, plain and simple, by the dreams they showed us. we did not read the fine print. that is why we are half lawyers now.

make sure you teach your children to read the fine print. and try to gauge the intentions of those who are showing you dreams.

this is the same country which talked of equality and fraternity of man and then quietly removed colored people from the definition of humans, and legally accepted slavery.

more i want more of these options.....as logiclife said - THIS IS NOT A JOKE ....

Let explore any and all options here to become illegal and qualify for a Z VISA

That is wishful thinking.I know people with more recent priority dates got cleared in june but it will go back to PD system from now on again,how else can they do it.The reason why (to eveyone's surprise) they made everything current was to clear some of these cases which were filed long ago(I-485) but were stuck due to the retrogression.This is obviously not going to happen again for sometime since they now have hundreds of thousands of more cases.

I think this will happen again but only in the last quarter when USCIS has to utilise all the visa numbers .With the fiasco that happened in July ,there will be a substantial movement in PDs for June 2008 VB or in the last quarter as they will want to approve cases which have been cleared but cant be approved due to PD not being current. So we will see this kind of scenario almost every last quarter. Also there is a high probablity because 1. they would not like to waste visa numbers . 2. USCIS in under the pressure for media to work in a more efficient manner and justify the fee hikes 3. this also happens to make some people from the immigrant community happy ( atleast something is happening rather than nothing is happening)

guys i posted flyers in areas around LA at Artesia, Temples/Grocery stores around Orange County. Will do more of posting around LA. If you know of places around LA where there can be more of Indians, Chinese, Filipinos please let me know I will post them and try to talk to people around.

If your case is filed by lawyer, then your lawyer will also receive a copy of your FP Notices. So you may want to contact your lawyer and see if he got it?

Yes. I did check with my lawyer. She didn't receive yet. :confused:

A freind of mine came across a gentleman, who is here on work visa and he is facing a unique problem. He is married to two persons and wants to bring his whole family here in the USA. He was looking for answer if he can get both his spouses and kids here on H4 visas. Currently both of them and his kids are in India. Interesting hmmm :D

I think calling your university presidents and asking them to show their support for these bills would also be a very good idea. This bill will encourage pursuit of higher education in US by foreign students in a significant way.

Right now for all bills that Zoe proposed there are max 19 co sponser for this last bill. DID you check for STRIVE ACT 2007 which had 78 co-sponsers still could not make it to floor.

We need to call these lawmakers and educated them on these bills.

Chances are less but our investment is not that big. Few minutes in a day to call or write.

Hi, I am one of the concurrent filing applicants. I filed my 140 and 485 on July 2. Can you give me a link for this memo ? Also if I invoke ac 21 do i need to file the g28 on 485 ? and what is g28 exactly for ?

You joined today just to post this? Dude you need to first fill your profile details and earn some credibility before you ask people to do something.

Hey Bozo - I've been following IV for about 2 years now using my spouse's ID - I just created one for myself today - My wife and I have contributed to IV also. Know the facts before shooting your mouth off - NUT JOB!!!

Where did you get this number 80,000 FB numbers given to EB immigrants? Please show me the source !

Also, you are forgetting about 7% country quota and the demand from ROW (which itself is retrogressed!).

So no matter what you may think, without IV it's going to be a long wait

The other bottleneck is USCIS' inefficiency, not a lack of visa numbers.

If you go thru the statistics of last few years, the annual quota for EB is 140,000 + 80,000 from family other category.IV might want to convince us otherwise, but looking at the numbers, I do not see a shortage of visa numbers.

Divorce in India takes a minimum 1 year to adjudicate if you were married less than 1 year. Otherwise, it is up to the discretion of the judge. Courts in India require a 'cooling period', with 'counseling / mediation'. Latter is basically a a sham.

That said, as a trained mediator, and negotiator, I would say ... a win-win outcome is always better for all parties. What happens to be 'win-win' is of course subjective.

Good luck in whatever you do! Trust me, things always work out well in the end.

This is the attitude of our guys. So desperate. The agents get irritated because of this.

Your application is already there if you have the delivery confirmation, what is the point of calling them? They will issue or reject when they get to it, by calling them they are not going to go searching for your application..

Please be patient the decision to accept or reject is not going to change by calling them for a receipt notice!
